RAF Highland Mess Dress

Very nice indeed.
There is nowadays a Royal Air Force tartan which some servicemen wear for special occasions, but the Grey Douglas is historically accurate for these Volunteer Reserve Squadrons.

To add to Alex's post, The Pipes & Drums of RAF Halton wore the Douglas tartan (modern colours) until 2004, when it (along with the four other RAF pipe bands) received the RAF tartan.
